'Gravity' was the first movie i ever watched in 3D, the thing was ok but that format is simply not for me, and the film in general was nice, not as great as everyone was saying it was but not bad either. Still, there was a scene that really touched me, that stand out for me in the movie, and that was when Ryan Stone, Sandra Bullock's character, has no hopes of survival and believes she's gonna die while she makes contact with someone on the radio that doesn't understand her cries for help.

Now a shortfilm has just been released that shows what happened on the other side of the radio, directed by Alfonso Cuarón's son Jonas Cuarón, and is beyond beautiful. If there was something that touched me to the core was when in that scene the voice on the radio starts singing a lullaby to a baby that's crying on the background, and that makes Ryan Stone to calm down and fall asleep in a quiet and peaceful way to death, up in space where there's just silence.

What happens on that other side is also touching and has a sad turn in the end. Watch:
